    Galerie Maria Wettergen is proud to present Ophelia, by Margrethe Odgaard, for TEFAF FOCUS at Maastricht 2026.

    Considered as one of the most important contemporary textile artists of Scandinavia, Margrethe Odgaard explores color as a sensory and material phenomenon, using layered silk organza to investigate the behavior of light. With her new textile art series Ophelia, Margrethe Odgaard explores how the sensory perception of colour and material can open up emotional resonance and tender communication. Each work consists of colour fields placed opposite one another and framed by a gradient. The gradient creates a fluid space that forms resonance between the colours, highlighting how meaning is always in motion.

    About The Artist

    Colours matter, and so does working with them. Margrethe Odgaard: ”Working with colours and patterns is like playing music. A note on a piano has a certain sound, but it is only when it is put together with other tones that it becomes a melody. In the same way, one can speak of hue, saturation and brightness of a singular colour, but when two or more colours are put together, they form an inner hierarchy and  rhythm, influencing the perception visually and emotionally”.
     
    Margrethe Odgaard has a broad notion of textiles, considering the textile medium not only fibers but also the surface of our surroundings. She believes that objects made with diligence and care, has a higher probability of reproducing a similar behavior among people.
